Excellent YEC blog

I recently stumbled across an excellent YEC blog by Todd Wood:

Todd's Blog

The reason I like it so much is that he gets it. He understands the evidence for evolution and recognizes that it's good. He knows that evolution isn`t in trouble. He knows that Darwin was not a Nazi. He accepts macroevolution (speciation). He knows that if YECism is to replace evolution, then creationists must band together to come up with a better working theory, rather than simply trying to push their case in court. And although I disagree with him that the Bible demands a concordist interpretation of Genesis (the only thing, I think, keeping him from accepting evolutionary creation), I respect his refreshing honesty and integrity when it comes to creationism and evolution. People on all sides of the discussion would do good to learn from him.

Daniel in the Bible lived in peace when possible and fought when essential.

I thought this quote was ironic, because isn't it the exact opposite here on CF? People fight whenever possible and live in peace when essential. (Actually I haven't seen much peace, but then nothing much is essential on an internet forum.)

Thanks for that! I read your post, went straight to his blog and read heaps! It is really good. As others have said, it is refreshing. It is nice to see such a reasonable collection of writings. He is fair, and it is also good how he stresses that we must not make an idol of 'evidence'!
